what is the path to making money from programming? legal or not

if someone like me who barley has any coding experience, what would be the path to make money from this?

[pending moderation]

step 1. learn to code. don't want to learn to code? how would u make money for programming then ? vibe coding some crap together or some copy paste github "project"?

learn code, find a job, be better at coding with your job, write some apps for cybercrime, sell them - repeat
